NIOSH fellowship opportunities

A summer opportunity is available to support the Surveillance Branch (SB) of the Division of Surveillance, Hazard Evaluations and Field Studies (DSHEFS), within the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The summer fellow will learn how to update past SB findings related to acute illnesses associated with pesticide exposures at schools. The fellow will be trained how to properly identify which states or school districts have passed regulations to implement some of our past recommendations and how to calculate acute pesticide poisoning rates using national pesticides data we have already obtained.

The Epidemiology Research Fellow will be assigned to the SENSOR-Pesticides program, and will participate under the guidance of a mentor by conducting surveillance studies of acute pesticide-related illness and injury, with a focus on those caused by work-related exposures. Many of the specific activities of the Fellow will be tailored to the fellow’s interests, training, and background to provide an individualized experience.
